Public Accounts Committee

Garda Síochána - Review of Allowances

2:50 pm

Mr. Martin Callinan:

This may well be an issue for negotiation down the road. Almost every weekend, many members of my senior command are called out to handle different issues such as murders and other serious and nefarious activities. It is a given that they are involved almost 24-7. They are available via telephone, e-mail, etc. I should go no further than to say that there is a capacity for an availability allowance, but its complexion and fit are issues for another day of conciliation and arbitration.
